7f47d8cc03 x86, tracing, perf: Add trace point for MSR accesses
For debugging low level code interacting with the CPU it is often
useful to trace the MSR read/writes. This gives a concise summary of
PMU and other operations.

perf has an ad-hoc way to do this using trace_printk, but it's
somewhat limited (and also now spews ugly boot messages when enabled)

Instead define real trace points for all MSR accesses.

This adds three new trace points: read_msr and write_msr and rdpmc.

They also report if the access faulted (if *_safe is used)

This allows filtering and triggering on specific MSR values, which
allows various more advanced debugging techniques.

All the values are well defined in the CPU documentation.

The trace can be post processed with
Documentation/trace/postprocess/decode_msr.py to add symbolic MSR
names to the trace.

I only added it to native MSR accesses in C, not paravirtualized or in
entry*.S (which is not too interesting)

Originally the patch kit moved the MSRs out of line.  This uses an
alternative approach recommended by Steven Rostedt of only moving the
trace calls out of line, but open coding the access to the jump label.

22402cd0af Most of the changes are clean ups and small fixes. Some of them have
stable tags to them. I searched through my INBOX just as the merge window
 opened and found lots of patches to pull. I ran them through all my tests
 and they were in linux-next for a few days.
 
 Features added this release:
 ----------------------------
 
  o Module globbing. You can now filter function tracing to several
    modules. # echo '*:mod:*snd*' > set_ftrace_filter (Dmitry Safonov)
 
  o Tracer specific options are now visible even when the tracer is not
    active. It was rather annoying that you can only see and modify tracer
    options after enabling the tracer. Now they are in the options/ directory
    even when the tracer is not active. Although they are still only visible
    when the tracer is active in the trace_options file.
 
  o Trace options are now per instance (although some of the tracer specific
    options are global)
 
  o New tracefs file: set_event_pid. If any pid is added to this file, then
    all events in the instance will filter out events that are not part of
    this pid. sched_switch and sched_wakeup events handle next and the wakee
    pids.

39f4034693 intel_th: Add driver infrastructure for Intel(R) Trace Hub devices
Intel(R) Trace Hub (TH) is a set of hardware blocks (subdevices) that
produce, switch and output trace data from multiple hardware and
software sources over several types of trace output ports encoded
in System Trace Protocol (MIPI STPv2) and is intended to perform
full system debugging.

For these subdevices, we create a bus, where they can be discovered
and configured by userspace software.

This patch creates this bus infrastructure, three types of devices
(source, output, switch), resource allocation, some callback mechanisms
to facilitate communication between the subdevices' drivers and some
common sysfs attributes.

7bd1d4093c stm class: Introduce an abstraction for System Trace Module devices
A System Trace Module (STM) is a device exporting data in System Trace
Protocol (STP) format as defined by MIPI STP standards. Examples of such
devices are Intel(R) Trace Hub and Coresight STM.

This abstraction provides a unified interface for software trace sources
to send their data over an STM device to a debug host. In order to do
that, such a trace source needs to be assigned a pair of master/channel
identifiers that all the data from this source will be tagged with. The
STP decoder on the debug host side will use these master/channel tags to
distinguish different trace streams from one another inside one STP
stream.

This abstraction provides a configfs-based policy management mechanism
for dynamic allocation of these master/channel pairs based on trace
source-supplied string identifier. It has the flexibility of being
defined at runtime and at the same time (provided that the policy
definition is aligned with the decoding end) consistency.

For userspace trace sources, this abstraction provides write()-based and
mmap()-based (if the underlying stm device allows this) output mechanism.

For kernel-side trace sources, we provide "stm_source" device class that
can be connected to an stm device at run time.

59a47fff02 Mostly this is just clean ups and micro optimizations.
The changes with more meat are:
 
  o Allowing the trace event filters to filter on CPU number and process ids
 
  o Two new markers for trace output latency were added
     (10 and 100 msec latencies)
 
  o Have tracing_thresh filter function profiling time
 
 I also worked on modifying the ring buffer code for some future
 work, and moved the adding of the timestamp around. One of my changes
 caused a regression, and since other changes were built on top of it
 and already tested, I had to operate a revert of that change. Instead
 of rebasing, this change set has the code that caused a regression
 as well as the code to revert that change without touching the other
 changes that were made on top of it.

b838e1d96c tracing: Introduce two additional marks for delay
A fine granulity support for delay would be very useful when profiling
VM logics, such as page allocation including page reclaim and memory
compaction with function graph.

Thus, this patch adds two additional marks with two changes.

 - An equal sign in mark selection function is removed to align code
   behavior with comments and documentation.

 - The function graph example related to delay in ftrace.txt is updated
   to cover all supported marks.

The command `echo > set_ftrace_pid` should be used to clean the filter quietly.
because the command `echo -1 >  set_ftrace_pid` will output the following:
"bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument".

so update the file Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt.

8e1e1df29d tracing: Add additional marks to signal very large time deltas
Currently, function graph tracer prints "!" or "+" just before
function execution time to signal a function overhead, depending
on the time. And some tracers tracing latency also print "!" or
"+" just after time to signal overhead, depending on the interval
between events. Even it is usually enough to do that, we sometimes
need to signal for bigger execution time than 100 micro seconds.

For example, I used function graph tracer to detect if there is
any case that exit_mm() takes too much time. I did following steps
in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing. It was easier to detect very large
excution time with patched kernel than with original kernel.

$ echo exit_mm > set_graph_function
$ echo function_graph > current_tracer
$ echo > trace
$ cat trace_pipe > $LOGFILE
 ... (do something and terminate logging)
$ grep "\\$" $LOGFILE
 3) $ 22082032 us |                      } /* kernel_map_pages */
 3) $ 22082040 us |                    } /* free_pages_prepare */
 3) $ 22082113 us |                  } /* free_hot_cold_page */
 3) $ 22083455 us |                } /* free_hot_cold_page_list */
 3) $ 22083895 us |              } /* release_pages */
 3) $ 22177873 us |            } /* free_pages_and_swap_cache */
 3) $ 22178929 us |          } /* unmap_single_vma */
 3) $ 22198885 us |        } /* unmap_vmas */
 3) $ 22206949 us |      } /* exit_mmap */
 3) $ 22207659 us |    } /* mmput */
 3) $ 22207793 us |  } /* exit_mm */

And then, it was easy to find out that a schedule-out occured by
sub_preempt_count() within kernel_map_pages().

To detect very large function exection time caused by either problematic
function implementation or scheduling issues, this patch can be useful.

f8b8be8a31 ftrace, kprobes: Support IPMODIFY flag to find IP modify conflict
Introduce FTRACE_OPS_FL_IPMODIFY to avoid conflict among
ftrace users who may modify regs->ip to change the execution
path. If two or more users modify the regs->ip on the same
function entry, one of them will be broken. So they must add
IPMODIFY flag and make sure that ftrace_set_filter_ip() succeeds.

Note that ftrace doesn't allow ftrace_ops which has IPMODIFY
flag to have notrace hash, and the ftrace_ops must have a
filter hash (so that the ftrace_ops can hook only specific
entries), because it strongly depends on the address and
must be allowed for only few selected functions.

b8c0aa46b3 This pull request has a lot of work done. The main thing is the changes
to the ftrace function callback infrastructure. It's introducing a
 way to allow different functions to call directly different trampolines
 instead of all calling the same "mcount" one.
 
 The only user of this for now is the function graph tracer, which always
 had a different trampoline, but the function tracer trampoline was called
 and did basically nothing, and then the function graph tracer trampoline
 was called. The difference now, is that the function graph tracer
 trampoline can be called directly if a function is only being traced by
 the function graph trampoline. If function tracing is also happening on
 the same function, the old way is still done.
 
 The accounting for this takes up more memory when function graph tracing
 is activated, as it needs to keep track of which functions it uses.
 I have a new way that wont take as much memory, but it's not ready yet
 for this merge window, and will have to wait for the next one.
 
 Another big change was the removal of the ftrace_start/stop() calls that
 were used by the suspend/resume code that stopped function tracing when
 entering into suspend and resume paths. The stop of ftrace was done
 because there was some function that would crash the system if one called
 smp_processor_id()! The stop/start was a big hammer to solve the issue
 at the time, which was when ftrace was first introduced into Linux.
 Now ftrace has better infrastructure to debug such issues, and I found
 the problem function and labeled it with "notrace" and function tracing
 can now safely be activated all the way down into the guts of suspend
 and resume.
 
 Other changes include clean ups of uprobe code.
 Clean up of the trace_seq() code.
 And other various small fixes and clean ups to ftrace and tracing.

8875125efe sched: Transform resched_task() into resched_curr()
We always use resched_task() with rq->curr argument.
It's not possible to reschedule any task but rq's current.

The patch introduces resched_curr(struct rq *) to
replace all of the repeating patterns. The main aim
is cleanup, but there is a little size profit too:

  (before)
	$ size kernel/sched/built-in.o
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	155274	  16445	   7042	 178761	  2ba49	kernel/sched/built-in.o

	$ size vmlinux
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	7411490	1178376	 991232	9581098	 92322a	vmlinux

  (after)
	$ size kernel/sched/built-in.o
	   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
	155130	  16445	   7042	 178617	  2b9b9	kernel/sched/built-in.o

	7411362	1178376	 991232	9580970	 9231aa	vmlinux

	I was choosing between resched_curr() and resched_rq(),
	and the first name looks better for me.

A little lie in Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt. I have not
actually collected the tracing again. With a hope the patch
won't make execution times much worse :)

b27ebf7791 mm:vmscan: update the trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl for event vmscan/mm_vmscan_lru_isolate
When using trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl for checking the file/anon rate
of scanning, we can find that it can not be performed.  At the same
time, the following message will be reported:

  WARNING: Format not as expected for event vmscan/mm_vmscan_lru_isolate
  'file' != 'contig_taken' Fewer fields than expected in format at
  ./trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl line 171, <FORMAT> line 76.

In trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl, (contig_taken, contig_dirty, and
contig_failed) are be associated respectively to (nr_lumpy_taken,
nr_lumpy_dirty, and nr_lumpy_failed) for lumpy reclaim.  Via commit
c53919adc0 ("mm: vmscan: remove lumpy reclaim"), lumpy reclaim had
already been removed by Mel, but the update for
trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl was missed.

 "Lots of tweaks, small fixes, optimizations, and some helper functions

  The big change for this release is the allowing of other tracers, such

  for function or function graph tracing to be in the top level

607e3a2920 tracing: Add funcgraph_tail option to print function name after closing braces
In the function-graph tracer, add a funcgraph_tail option
to print the function name on all } lines, not just
functions whose first line is no longer in the trace
buffer.

If a function calls other traced functions, its total
time appears on its } line.  This change allows grep
to be used to determine the function for which the
line corresponds.

Update Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt to describe
this new option.

7c65bbc7dc tracing: Add trace_<tracepoint>_enabled() function
There are some code paths in the kernel that need to do some preparations
before it calls a tracepoint. As that code is worthless overhead when
the tracepoint is not enabled, it would be prudent to have that code
only run when the tracepoint is active. To accomplish this, all tracepoints
now get a static inline function called "trace_<tracepoint-name>_enabled()"
which returns true when the tracepoint is enabled and false otherwise.

As an added bonus, that function uses the static_key of the tracepoint
such that no branch is needed.

  if (trace_mytracepoint_enabled()) {
	arg = process_tp_arg();
	trace_mytracepoint(arg);
  }

Will keep the "process_tp_arg()" (which may be expensive to run) from
being executed when the tracepoint isn't enabled.

It's best to encapsulate the tracepoint itself in the if statement
just to keep races. For example, if you had:

  if (trace_mytracepoint_enabled())
	arg = process_tp_arg();
  trace_mytracepoint(arg);

There's a chance that the tracepoint could be enabled just after the
if statement, and arg will be undefined when calling the tracepoint.

68114e5eb8 Most of the changes were largely clean ups, and some documentation.
But there were a few features that were added.
 
 Uprobes now work with event triggers and multi buffers.
 Uprobes have support under ftrace and perf.
 
 The big feature is that the function tracer can now be used within the
 multi buffer instances. That is, you can now trace some functions
 in one buffer, others in another buffer, all functions in a third buffer
 and so on. They are basically agnostic from each other. This only
 works for the function tracer and not for the function graph trace,
 although you can have the function graph tracer running in the top level
 buffer (or any tracer for that matter) and have different function tracing
 going on in the sub buffers.

af64a7cb09 ftrace: Pass retval through return in ftrace_dyn_arch_init()
No architecture uses the "data" parameter in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() in any
way, it just sets the value to 0. And this is used as a return value
in the caller -- ftrace_init, which just checks the retval against
zero.

Note there is also "return 0" in every ftrace_dyn_arch_init.  So it is
enough to check the retval and remove all the indirect sets of data on
all archs.

c72bb31691 The majority of the changes here are cleanups for the large changes that
were added to 3.10, which includes several bug fixes that have been
 marked for stable.
 
 As for new features, there were a few, but nothing to write to LWN about.
 These include:
 
 New function trigger called "dump" and "cpudump" that will cause
 ftrace to dump its buffer to the console when the function is called.
 The difference between "dump" and "cpudump" is that "dump" will dump
 the entire contents of the ftrace buffer, where as "cpudump" will only
 dump the contents of the ftrace buffer for the CPU that called the function.
 
 Another small enhancement is a new sysctl switch called "traceoff_on_warning"
 which, when enabled, will disable tracing if any WARN_ON() is triggered.
 This is useful if you want to debug what caused a warning and do not
 want to risk losing your trace data by the ring buffer overwriting the
 data before you can disable it. There's also a kernel command line
 option that will make this enabled at boot up called the same thing.

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "This time the total number of ACPI commits is slightly greater than
  the number of cpufreq commits, but Viresh Kumar (who works on cpufreq)
  remains the most active patch submitter.

  To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online
  device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and
  the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code.  Next are the
  freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of
  tasks a bit less heavy weight.

  We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for
  issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers
  and a bunch of cleanups all over.

  Highlights:

   - Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures.

     It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations
     gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely.  For example,
     if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated
     for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's
     desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way
     rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel
     crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory
     hot-removal.  Needless to say, that is not a very attractive
     alternative and it had to be addressed.

     However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make
     it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI
     processor driver.  It's been split into two parts, a resident one
     handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one
     playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system
     device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing
     processors).  That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a
     patient who's riding a bike.

     So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of
     regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing
     (a month ago), nobody has complained.

     As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the
     ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug
     code.

   - Lighter weight freezing of tasks.

     These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are
     targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight
     operation.  They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time
     during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer
     simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all
     to call refrigerator().  The time needed for the freezer to decide
     to report a failure is reduced too.

     Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to
     trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is
     generally unsafe and shouldn't happen).

   - cpufreq updates

     First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression
     introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs
     attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume.  The
     fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa
     has identified the root cause.

     Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the
     acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via
     related_cpus.  From Lan Tianyu.

     Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the
     CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean
     up some code.  The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits
     from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia,
     Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian.

   - ACPICA update

     A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream.

     During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended
     sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the
     HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted
     to use them without checking that bit.  That caused suspend/resume
     regressions to happen on some systems.  Fix from Lv Zheng causes
     those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set.

     Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups
     are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and
     Zhang Rui.

   - cpuidle updates

     New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek.

     Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing
     kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel
     Lezcano.

   - ACPI power management updates

     Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from
     Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and
     cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection
     routine.

   - ACPI documentation updates

     Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by
     Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to
     uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is
     updated by Hanjun Guo.

   - Assorted ACPI updates

     We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for
     reverting commit 9f29ab11dd ("ACPI / scan: do not match drivers
     against objects having scan handlers"), so we can fix it and move
     the ACPI scan handler check added to the ACPI video driver back to
     the core.

     A mechanism for adding CMOS RTC address space handlers is
     introduced by Lan Tianyu to allow some EC-related breakage to be
     fixed on some systems.

     A spec-compliant implementation of acpi_os_get_timer() is added by
     Mika Westerberg.

     The evaluation of _STA is added to do_acpi_find_child() to avoid
     situations in which a pointer to a disabled device object is
     returned instead of an enabled one with the same _ADR value.  From
     Jeff Wu.

     Intel BayTrail PCH (Platform Controller Hub) support is added to
     the ACPI driver for Intel Low-Power Subsystems (LPSS) and that
     driver is modified to work around a couple of known BIOS issues.
     Changes from Mika Westerberg and Heikki Krogerus.

     The EC driver is fixed by Vasiliy Kulikov to use get_user() and
     put_user() instead of dereferencing user space pointers blindly.

     Code cleanups are made by Bjorn Helgaas, Nicholas Mazzuca and Toshi
     Kani.

   - Assorted power management updates

     The "runtime idle" helper routine is changed to take the return
     values of the callbacks executed by it into account and to call
     rpm_suspend() if they return 0, which allows us to reduce the
     overall code bloat a bit (by dropping some code that's not
     necessary any more after that modification).

     The runtime PM documentation is updated by Alan Stern (to reflect
     the "runtime idle" behavior change).

     New trace points for PM QoS are added by Sahara
     (<keun-o.park@windriver.com>).

     PM QoS documentation is updated by Lan Tianyu.

     Code cleanups are made and minor issues are addressed by Bernie
     Thompson, Bjorn Helgaas, Julius Werner, and Shuah Khan.

   - devfreq updates

     New driver for the Exynos5-bus device from Abhilash Kesavan.

     Minor cleanups, fixes and MAINTAINERS update from MyungJoo Ham,
     Abhilash Kesavan, Paul Bolle, Rajagopal Venkat, and Wei Yongjun.

   - OMAP power management updates

     Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) SmartReflex voltage control driver
     updates from Andrii Tseglytskyi and Nishanth Menon."
